FLUVANNA COUNTY, Va. (CBS19 NEWS) -- Fluvanna County students started their Monday a little late.
The Fluvanna County Sheriff’s Office contacted Fluvanna County Public Schools officials Monday morning concerning a threat of violence toward the high school that had been shared through social media.
Law enforcement and school officials were able to identify the location of the person believed to have shared the threat and an investigation is ongoing.
At this time, there is no credible threat against the school, but out of an abundance of caution, schools were put on a two-hour delay.
The sheriff's office reports subjects are facing charges.
The post has also been deemed a hoax, involving people daring each other to make the threats.
